Here is detailed steps for 2 phone at promo trade- Its Possible as provided by BB employee. Thanks to him for sharing entire process step by step.
1. Get 2 phone for trade in ( has to be different - i.e one iPhone and other Android) reason being both trade in generates different sku based on different phone and that is key. If u trade same platform phone twice sku are same and it will not work as only one coupon of same sku works.
2. First get both trade ins done ( 2 times you need to sign) make sure each trade in gives you bb gift card and single use coupon -total of coupon and gift card should ne equal to trade in value u see online.
3. When entering tradein if they say u will get just 200 or 300 ask them to apply promo code google that's the trick
4. Only select unlocked phone colour black ( e.g for blue their is restriction that u need verizon and if u take verizon thank watch promo not apply)
5. Make sure to get watch added in same order ( as unlike online watch doesn't get added automatically?- dont be fooled by bb employee tell
specifically to add watch)
6. Watch color only black make sure also its wifi else it will mess up entire order.
7. After seeing all good then only pay for remaining.
8. Coupon values - of both phones reduces price before tax so effectively u pay tax on net amount apart from gift cards.
In my example I traded p7 and ip11 and got 200 × 2 gift cards and 250 coupon for p7 and 300 coupons for ip11..so net transaction 999- 250-300 = 449+ tax on 449 is net amount - 200-200 gift card = so 49+tax on 449 is the payment amount.
Watch should show 349- 349 = 0.

Please try tomorrow and day after as it will be last days of preorder.
Make most of deal - any questions welcome...

But that doesn't mean the phone isn't compatible with T-Mobile, it probably means they don't stock T-Mobile SIMs and service. Do you have a source that says this unlocked phone from Best Buy will not take a T-Mobile SIM?
Also, trade-in note at checkout if you're selecting store pickup is "Bring your trade-in device to the store when you pick up your new item."

Now it's definitely bs or you got a clueless employee but I will believe it's bs since BB only accepts the trade in at the time of pickup or for available stock.

I am not sure if it's worth going through this hassle to upgrade from Pixel 7 to Pixel 8 unless if you're really need to upgrade your older phones.

(this gives $460 trade-in towards a Pixel 8 or 8 Pro with BestBuy)
After deducting $460 trade-in, we pay $239+Tax ) for Google Pixel 8 (Does Google calculates the Tax on total device price before deducting the trade-in ?).
So total including the tax comes around $416 or more depending on your state tax and I am not sure if it's worth going through this hassle to upgrade from Pixel 7 to Pixel 8 unless if you're really need to upgrade your older phones.
Great deal, still have 4 months of service left. Hope they do it again to capture market share.
My #1 gripe about the P7 is the in-screen fingerprint reader. Almost broke me to the point of switching to Apple.
After deducting $460 trade-in value, remaining balance $239+Tax for Pixel 8
$160+$239+Tax=$416 aprox for Pixel 8 from BB
